After a brief hiatus, the Civic Si reappeared in 1999 with a twin-cam VTEC® 4-cylinder engine that made 160 horsepower from 1.6 liters, a rarity in vehicles of its price range.

The 2002 Civic Si featured fresh and innovative styling with its distinctive short nose and exclusive 3-door package.

In 2006, a completely redesigned Si brought a 197-horsepower engine, plus new levels of performance, handling and styling.

2007 added four doors to the speed and performance Si package with the all-new Civic Si Sedan. It had the same power and attitude, just with more practical comforts.

The 2012 Si brought more muscle with a 201-horsepower engine (SAE net)[1] and greater torque. It also saw a weight reduction and improved aerodynamics, making the Si leaner and meaner than before.

2013 meant a tech upgrade for the Si with the addition of a rearview camera [2]. Its also got new style to match its smarts, with carbon weave on the instrument panel and a bold rear wing spoiler.

In 2014, a 205-horsepower engine (SAE net)[1], push-button start, and new two-toned seats took the Si racing heritage to the max. The new 7-inch Display Audio and HondaLink® systems added even more ingenious tech[3][4].
